Will Develope Growth
Will Develop Growth.
Dr. George W. Dunphy, state veterinarian, Dr. J. A. Dell and Dr. H. H. Waite, of the hygienic laboratory of the university, on Saturday visited the farm of William Rushton, in Manchester township, where the cases of anthrax were reported among the sheep. Since the last visit of Dr. Dunphy no sheep had died, and there was only one sick. This animal they killed and held a postmortem. They found intestinal worms and numbers of nodules, which will probably develop into worms.
Dr. Waite took a number of growths which he will proceed to develop. Dr. Dunphy has not changed opinion in declaring that there were no cases of anthrax among Mr. Rushton's sheep. Anthrax is a gangrene of the cellular tissue, and very fatal, within a few hours to sheep attacked. In all of the postmortems intestinal parasites were found.
